I love it so much. During moments when Kyo and Tohru have sweet moments, I like them but they don't seem as special because it was oblivious they would end up together. Though, when Yuki and Machi have moments, they're so unforgetably sweet and heartwarming. Like your story here. Very well done, and gets the personality and mindset of Machi across very clearly. And I love the last line, and that you stopped it right there, so that the reader can guess he transforms, but you never actually state it. I love it, very well done.

I'm honored that this story was dedicated to myself...and Ekoaleko! (I have to agree, she is one excellent writer.)

Beautifully done...Machi being mistreated because she had gotten the man she didn't deserve, despite being less attractive than Yuki's many many admirers. Mmph, I love Yuki x Machi. (to put it in perspective, it's my Fruitsbasket equivalent of Gray x Mary)
